At NWEA, we understand that data from the assessments we create plays a critical role in supporting student-centered instruction, and in informing the systems, policies, and investments that support equal opportunity for all students to learn. As we partner with states and the districts to create systems that positively impact all students, we apply an equity lens to test design, content development, and integration of accessibility and accommodations.

At NWEA, we’re partnering with states to create balanced assessment systems that prioritize learning and teaching. It’s time for unified approaches that support educators in challenging every student, increase opportunity for schools and students to show growth, and drive the systems-level actions needed to foster educational equity. Reimagine assessment and accountability with us.

Learn how Nebraska Department of Education partnered with NWEA® to co-create a new, student-centered approach to statewide assessment by integrating district and state measures using an adaptive through-year assessment model.

NWEA research into student learning during the 2020–21 school year has confirmed what many suspected was true: COVID-19 school closures have exacerbated inequities in education.

In this webinar, you’ll hear research-backed recommendations about how your teachers can support student goal setting and practices in the classroom that empower student voice and choice.

Partnering to help all kids learn. That’s our mission. And our professional learning offerings are one of the most significant ways we bring it to fruition every day.

There’s no such thing as one-size-fits-all education. The right assessment is the key to reaching each and every student—exactly where they are.
